  • Children in need were asked for help and their response was that she wasn't a child in need, all money I was going to donate to them is now going to Frankie Rose.

    I would have thought she was more in need than most they help. Sorry to hear that Sadie.

  • Sadie,

    No idea what sort of strategy there is in place, but if this is going to get anywhere close in the next couple of weeks, it going to need serious high-level media coverage.

    Either one of the main daily's to get behind it (Sun, Mirror, Mail), or tv news (Local news, One Show).

    Relying on social media / word of mouth gets you so far and exposure, buti fear that will dry up without something major like the above.

    I was thinking the same.

    Funny how we have no shortage of "News Shopper" related bloggers and posters on here..........yet not a word about this on their site.

    In contrast,one can read that five sheep have been left on a development site somewhere as a protest.

    Friends and family of Frankie-Rose will be holding a charity evening on Saturday 22nd November, at The Brewers Arms, Northumberland Heath, Brook Street. There will be an 80's disco, food, raffles and an auction - prizes include tickets to Paris on the Eurostar, spa days, hampers, champagne and much more. Bring all of your friends. Looking forward to seeing you all there x x x

    Sadie. I have won in a similar distressed child-related auction, but unable to take advantage of, a time-share holiday in the Lake District for a week commencing Sunday 20 December. The accommodation is 5 star two bedroom reverse house (sleeps 6) situated in Underscar, near Keswick. Facilities on the complex include use of large heated swimming pool, Jacuzzi, Sauna and Gym.
    Dogs not allowed.

    I am more than happy to donate this holiday for the auction on 22 November to help Frankie-Rose.
    Peter that is excellent Tgank you

    That is great news. Lets keep our fingers crossed a rich anonymous donor makes up the rest. I'm really gutted to hear the family are having to sell their house at cut price to pay for the treatment.

  • SJ, I'm getting an error message when I try to donate - have PM'ed you
  • I think it's crashed Fiona. It hasn't ipdated in the last 50 mins when money was pouring in constantly. It's on 49k now was on 43 1 and a half hours ago. Hope they sort the link out.
  • Hi everyone the other page with 3k on it does work http://www.gofundme.com/h3upn4 both pages are linked to the family so it still counts, the main page is being fixed, it appears there is a limitation on it for some reason thank you again for your support xx

  • Such a shame they lost a key couple of hours at the most optimum time. Hope it doesn't impact.

    Just shows the impact though it getting it out there. Amazing response today.
  • Excellent response, I hope they do smash it £160'000 is for the treatment, a bit more would help the family stay together during the time give them enough to stay somewhere together near by.
  • Sadie, where abouts is the treatment in the USA? Plenty of States based Addicks on here. You never know !
  • Just caught up with this, Sadie. £50 donated and sending all the luck and best wishes in the world.

    You are a great lady, and a fabulous friend to this family - well done for raising it.
